You will need proper wiring and ecu, or a modified GT wiring harness + IMRC deletes and a custome tune. Regardless of which harness you use if you use a gt ECU you will need IMRC deleltes. You will also need a throttle cable as the cobra one is longer to clear the intake manifold. The cobra t45 trans had a different tailshaft than the t45 for the GT so you will need a proper transmission mount.
